So I don't think you are fair enough!
I ever posted a message said that jeff's patch had bug,
the bug is signal lost, but he obviously didn't fixed it,
and you guy allowed him to commit it, please search arch list
about 1:1 thread! I don't think delaying some days of libthr
change to kernel would hurt anything, I had reported
the problem and why did core still allow him to commit?
